Accessibility Statement

MapQueue is committed to being accessible to people with disabilities. We continuously work to improve accessibility across our app and website.

We have implemented the following accessibility features: Visual Design ✅ Color Contrast: All text and interactive elements meet WCAG AA contrast ratios (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text) ✅ Dark Mode: Full dark theme support for users with light sensitivity ✅ Text Scaling: App supports device-level text size adjustments (no fixed font sizes) ✅ Color Blind Friendly: Navigation uses icons + text, not color alone Interaction ✅ Touch Targets: All buttons and interactive elements are at least 48×48 logical points (iOS/Android standards) ✅ Touch Feedback: Visual and haptic feedback on button press ✅ Long Tap Support: All actions available via long-press gesture in addition to tap Screen Reader Support ✅ VoiceOver (iOS): All elements properly labeled with accessibilityLabel ✅ TalkBack (Android): Full screen reader compatibility ✅ Semantic Structure: Navigation and content organized logically for assistive technologies Navigation & Wayfinding ✅ Clear Hierarchy: Main navigation, sections, and content clearly organized ✅ Skip Links: Navigation UI allows focus on map content quickly ✅ Consistent Layout: Navigation and controls in same locations across screens Voice Features ✅ Voice Navigation: Turn-by-turn directions available via text-to-speech ✅ Voice Search: Hands-free address search using device microphone ✅ Spoken Hazard Alerts: Road hazards announced via audio

We are aware of the following limitations and are actively working to improve them: 1. Map Gestures Issue: Pinch-to-zoom, rotate, and tilt require multi-touch gestures Workaround: Zoom controls available via buttons. Rotation handled automatically during turn navigation Status: Investigating keyboard/voice alternatives (planned for future release) 2. Location Services Dependency Issue: Core features (navigation, hazard reporting) require device location access Limitation: Users who cannot enable location services cannot use navigation features Accessibility: Hazard reports can be submitted by nearby users if you share a general area 3. Voice Direction Timing Issue: Audible directions timed for driving speed; may not align with pedestrian pace Recommendation: Use with caution at walking speeds; enable visual map alongside 4. Map Annotation Labels Issue: Small text labels on map (street names, POIs) may be hard to read at default size Workaround: Use device text scaling or zoom in on map 5. Real-Time Traffic Updates Issue: Traffic congestion shown via color only (red/orange/green polylines) Alternative: Road hazards and suggested alternative routes provided with text descriptions
